HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?

A few warm, now hot, days after weeks of rain, the garden is doing what gardens are supposed to do, grow.  From one day to the next we can see change. 

The yellow flower hidden in the jumbo leaves is the promise of a pumpkin in a few months. 

Geraniums offer up a pink a cosmetic company would like to duplicate in lipstick and nail polish. . . reds and whites, too.

Succulents are the easiest to grow. They love the heat and need only a little water.  I'm trying a few herbs, too - basil, oregano, and parsley.

Fences keep the trouble makers out.

Today is hot and windy.  A good day to clean closets and that's just what we've been doing.  The thrift store where I shop is getting several large bags of clothing.  Whew!  It feels great to have some organization.  On to some knitting.  Scarves and hats in the next post.
